Hey everyone and welcome to this very special midweek edition of Plumbing the Death Star where we ask the important questions like why do me and Joel Zammett keep going to midnight screenings of films we're not really excited for? A.K.A. What do we think is going to happen for X-Men
Starting point is 00:00:52 Apocalypse? I'm not. I'm so excited guys. Hashtag let me die hashtag let Jules die right off the bat we'll be fine it's gonna be fun alright so yeah we'll start off with that actually just before we get into anything
Starting point is 00:01:14 if you want to tweet us about this film because I know that it's coming out in Australia before the US again but I think the UK probably have it around the same time like Civil War use the hashtag let us die. Or let me die. Man, some of the ones you got last time for Civil War. Actually, yeah, sorry.
Starting point is 00:01:32 My mistake. Hashtag, let me die. Tweet, yeah, me, Joel Zammett, Sandspants. Ali is also here. Hi. Jackson escaped the fucking cold grasp of X-men apocalypse i jumped on this so quickly jackson ran for the hills as soon as he heard someone else is interested he was gone well it wasn't even you were interested because like like i was like oh i don't know if i can get
Starting point is 00:01:58 you a ticket you were like down my throat about it i was like all right all right i'll sort it out i'm so excited they never let me come to these things this is the one thing that i and i realized when i had to get up for work at 9 a.m i was like i have to watch i have to watch a movie at midnight oh man what have i done why i'm so tired no you don't i'm sorry i'm running on pure excitement and adrenaline for tomorrow yeah here's what i'm thinking here's's what I think is going to happen. You guys are super like grumpy butts now
Starting point is 00:02:28 and then you'll see the movie and be like, it wasn't that bad. It was pretty good. All right, still tired. But I'm peaking so early when I crash, I'm going to crash.
Starting point is 00:02:37 Well, I think my expectations, because again, I was quite excited for this. Me too. After Days of Future Past, which I will say is probably one of my favorite X-Men films.
Starting point is 00:02:44 Yeah, I loved it. Probably one of my favorite superhero movies. Same. Like, that and X2. Whoa, it's close. It's close. Those two. Spider-Man 2 is fucking sick.
Starting point is 00:02:52 Oh, it's fucking good. Captain America, Winter Soldier. They're probably my favorite. And Civil War. Civil War's sick. Oh, now you've come round. I was always there, but I'm like... I want everyone to go back and listen to it.
Starting point is 00:03:04 What do we think of Captain America Civil War. There was a couple of things that I had issue with, and I still do, but Civil War on a whole is very good. Although I was talking to my physio I went to, because again, nerve pain, yeah, you have it. And he was going like, I don't know about Civil War. Why didn't Baron Zemo just send Tony Stark an email attachment? And I was like, it's very funny.
Starting point is 00:03:28 Like a DVD. Just like, here you go, mate. That's what happened. Eat a shit. Very funny. But then I'm like, no, no, no, no. Because he needed to go into the bunker to be like, this is the footage, blah, blah.
Starting point is 00:03:37 Anyway. I haven't seen it. Civil War, it's a good time. I haven't seen it yet. It's a good time. Spoilers to Civil War. Don't. Don't. Spider-osive Civil War. Don't! Don't!
Starting point is 00:03:47 Spider-Man's in it. Yeah, so after seeing Dates to the Past and the end scene after credits, which confused probably 90% of all filmgoers. I've mentioned this before. Who is this person? I've mentioned this before. People legitimately thought it was Hulk
Starting point is 00:04:02 and people legitimately thought it was Thanos. Damn weedy blue Hulk like he was so thin how could you mistake that for a Hulk I don't know when people say like oh I don't know about putting two quick silvers at my confusing movie going audience and then people get on the internet like how stupid do you think we are the answer is we don't think you legitimately are the dumbest fucks oh no again talking to my again another physio because guys you have no idea how much of a pain i mean um when we're talking about like in the x-men civil war and all that kind of stuff and talking about us does that mean you know um basically bat's going to be the new X-Men? I'm like, no.
Starting point is 00:04:47 No, it's not. Oh, my God, no. Even Gabe's dad, he went to see Civil War. He didn't like it because I think he was like, why is Spider-Man in this? Does that mean, like, Batman's going to come up next? Is Gabe's dad? Austrian, yes. Oh, okay, cool.
Starting point is 00:05:02 Good impression then. And, yeah, it is kind of like not realizing because we're so like you know balls deep in like comic book and comic book culture and all that kind of stuff that we understand what's going on plus there's also the film rights which also are hassled so someone who maybe take a passing glance at this is would potentially be like what the fuck is going on a guy a guy i work with so he works at a cinema his job he gets paid to work at a cinema it's like how are they going to explain quicksilver coming back from the dead and i was like what do you mean i was like he didn't die he's just in that one scene he's like
Starting point is 00:05:34 no he died in avengers 2 i was like oh you're a fucking idiot okay and then i used my powers to fight no i didn't fire him i wish i did just for that one but it is kind of strange that i don't know if it's strange or not but people kind of do get rather bamboozled but yeah i think the the age apocalypse apocalypse oh man if they're doing age apocalypse oh fuck no my no they're not they're just doing apocalypse um can we talk about age apocalypse yeah for a bit like oh fuck so it's a comic book series that basically is like Legion, who is Xavier's son, goes back in time and he's like, you know what the problem was?
Starting point is 00:06:08 Because he's a bit psychotic. You know what the problem was? It was the Magneto. Magneto's a cunt and Magneto needs to die. So I'm going to go back in time before all this bullshit happened and make sure that I kill Magneto so that Xavier, my dad, his reign and all this. Execute a baby, pretty much.
Starting point is 00:06:22 Basically, but when they're adults. So just after the war, I think, and all this kind of cool stuff. So he's like, I'm going to do that. I'm going to kill Magneto before he turns evil and ruins shit for everyone. So he goes back in time, and he's about to stab Magneto to the fucking heart.
Starting point is 00:06:34 And Xavier's like, no! He just jumps in front. What? He gets stabbed like a dickhead. And Legion's like, oops. He's been raiding himself from time? Basically. And then you have Age of Apocalypse,
Starting point is 00:06:46 where because it was a whole big mutant who were kind of out of themselves at the start, or earlier than they were meant to, Apocalypse is like, oh, my time to shine, I guess. Fucking decimates everyone. And Magneto's like, I will become the leader of the X-Men
Starting point is 00:07:01 in memory of my good friend Charles. And he leads the X-Men in his fucking prime 90s. So it's fucking edgy as shit. Everyone's got chains. Fuck, it's metal as fuck. Does everyone have too many pockets in their pants? Yeah. Yeah, good.
Starting point is 00:07:17 That actually sounds like an idea they've probably taken a little bit for this film. Because in the last trailer, now we're actually talking about the movie. It's only taken us like 20 minutes. Hey that's all right new record um it actually looks like they've sort of taken a little bit from that because based on the trailer um so again we i know the movie has had reviews we know the reviews and like how it's mixed reception at best yep but the only information we know about the films is from the trailers. Like we haven't read anything about it.
Starting point is 00:07:45 So if there is any spoilers in this, it's solely, it's solely a guess. Um, yeah. Like it looks like Mystique is going to be in charge of the X-Men because based on the last trailer, uh,
Starting point is 00:07:57 Charles gets fucked on by Apocalypse. Like Apocalypse looks like he kidnaps him, which doesn't seem like a very Apocalypse thing to do. No. Isn't he just real big? No, apocalypse's whole big thing is that he's just survival of the fittest.
Starting point is 00:08:09 Okay. So there's one comic where the legacy virus is going to make a comeback or whatever and everyone's trying to stop it because it's like going to fuck everyone up
Starting point is 00:08:16 and apocalypse because he's the ruler because it's set in the age apocalypse world is like, no, release it. Survival of the fittest. Fuck you. I'm the fittest.
Starting point is 00:08:24 If I die, then I wasn't. Oh, I'm dying. And he dies like a dickhead and everyone'sest fuck you i'm the fittest if i die then i wasn't oh i'm dying and everyone's like you fucking dickhead so he's very much does not care if you are like fit that means you're meant to survive it's kind of like you know trial by combat in a way yeah maybe this film like it's getting mixed reception because it's really like negatively geared towards people with disabilities maybe maybe fuck you Charles walk or die fuck you cripples
Starting point is 00:08:53 and everyone's like that's mean Brian Singer why are you doing this that's a weird message in your film Singer maybe I don't know why do we know why. Do we know why they're negative reviews?
Starting point is 00:09:08 Have you actually read any of the reviews? No. Where? I haven't read the reviews. Here is the negative review. You've just seen like the Rotten Tomatoes score and stuff like that. I haven't read any negative reviews. I just know that they're negative.
Starting point is 00:09:21 Very briefly being like franchise killing thing. And it's like, what? Yeah. From what I've read, it's very, very, very... I've only read brief stuff because I don't want to ruin the movie for myself. As much as I don't really care about spoilers, I'm not going to go out of my way to find them, if that makes sense.
Starting point is 00:09:33 Yeah, I generally don't care about spoilers, but for some reason, X-Men, I want to know. I don't know. Even with Civil War and stuff like that, if I wanted to find out about what happened, but I won't say because Ali hasn't seen it and I'm a good friend oh thanks spider-man did it damn it it gets big i didn't hear what you said i'm glad so big so big someone say giant man anyway
Starting point is 00:09:58 moving on spoilers not ones that you're gonna, but ones you're avoiding. Go on. Fuck. What was I saying? Oh, yeah. So, yeah. Like, it looks like apparently it's really, really, really poorly paced. Like, it's all built up and no payoff. The final confrontation is really strange, apparently, but not good strange.
Starting point is 00:10:17 Apparently, Apocalypse is a really weak villain. That's a shame. It doesn't handle lots of characters well, as in it really struggles with characters, which is really strange because Days of Future Past has like 800,000 mutants in it. I know, and it's real good at handling them. Yeah, but apparently, yeah, it's a mess kind of thing.
Starting point is 00:10:36 And yeah, apparently tries to be really, really, really dark. And actually, fun fact about this film that will only make sense to Australian listeners and people that, I guess, read about the classification board. Earlier this week, Fox had to dispute the rating of this X-Men film because it was originally going to be classified MA, which is surprising. So MA is the equivalent of an R in America. I don't know what the British rating is.
Starting point is 00:11:02 MA is... The one above it. Basically, M is recommended for 15 plus MA is you have to be 15 plus an R for us is you have to be 18 so a lot of people are familiar with the American rating so I'll just give you the Australian equivalent
Starting point is 00:11:16 so PG and PG in America for us are the same then we've got M they've got PG 13 we've got MA they've got R they've got NC 17 we've got R 18've got pg-13 we've got ma they've got r they've got nc-17 we've got r-18 ah okay yeah that makes so that's the lineups anyway now that's good yeah so fox apparently were like don't kill our film that people probably aren't already gonna see because reviews are trash and no one seems to care about x-men at the moment um that's such a pity because
Starting point is 00:11:41 i am such an x-man fan boy like Also because the movie is usually really well done. And actually, that's another thing. None of the X-Men films have dealt with like the end of the world before, like something so massive. It's usually just the end of mutants. Yeah, like even Days of Future Past was just like, yeah, even in Days of Future Past it's just like get fucked mutants. Like it's on a catastrophic scale, but it's still just like have a shit one.
Starting point is 00:12:06 Where I think Apocalypse is like, I'm going to destroy the world. So it mightn't handle, because X-Men's never tried to do like cities falling apart or anything like that. So they might fuck that up. It's always been like restricted to a small island, a stadium. I guess that's where X-Men has worked really well where it's always been us, the, them, and we use acceptance. And that's always really at the heart of X-Men.
Starting point is 00:12:30 Yeah, absolutely. Well, in the movies anyway, but not in the comics. Man, the fucking comics later, everything. Yeah. God, I love the comics so much. I know. So much. Time travel.
Starting point is 00:12:39 In space. Go to space. Meet Cyclops' dad. Cable. No. Oh, wait, no, Cable's his son. Cable's his son. His youngest son from the future. He's got that virus because he's like the most...
Starting point is 00:12:52 Techno-organic virus. Yeah, which is pretty much mutinates. No, that's a legacy virus. Oh, of course. Oh, yeah, no, that's right. No, because Cable has crazy powers, but has to use those powers to fight the fact he's literally dying. Yes.
Starting point is 00:13:06 So the problem being, or the problem, quotation mark, is the issue with the 616 universe, which is the standard universe, although now because of the Secret Wars changed a few things. But basically Cable was the son of Madeline Pryor and Scott Summers. Madeline Pryor being the clone of Jean Grey, right? And he was sent into the future because, I want to say, was it Apocalypse or Strife? I think Apocalypse.
Starting point is 00:13:27 Come on. Put him, like, the techno-gunning virus, so he chuffed off into the future, was taken care of the Ascani, because that's where they could take care of him. But then there was another mutant from the Age of Apocalypse universe called X-Man, who was Nate Grey, and he was the actual son of Gene Gray and Cyclops. From the Apocalypse universe.
Starting point is 00:13:48 From the Apocalypse universe. I'm not quite sure if, no, I think there was just like, I don't think if they actually fucked or if Beast or Dark Beast or Hank McCoy, evil Hank McCoy, was like, sperm, egg, bloop. How did he get that? Very, very powerful. I hope they fucked because that makes me less stressed about beasts. Will beasts milk me in my sleep?
Starting point is 00:14:10 Maybe. I think he might have, though. Oh, no. Well, there was breeding pits or slave pits in the apocalypse, mate. I like that comic books just have really, really fucked, like, sexual stuff, but they just wave their hand over it. Breeding pits or whatever, don't think about it. I think it was a breeding pit, because I'm pretty sure, cyclops and jingray of that universe like he rescues her and
Starting point is 00:14:29 wolverine in that universe he's only got one hand he's all shit anyway he's in he was for a while at least in the 616 universe and he was very powerful because he didn't have the techno organic um thing eating away at him and then he became like a shaman for a while that's good and then warren alice is like i'm gonna fuck with this let's um that's classic warren so this is the story right it was like hey i guess they were like we need to kill off x-man or something yeah so it's like all right here's a storyline it's gonna be that aliens planted humans and we're gonna come and harvest them but they can only eat humans, not mutants,
Starting point is 00:15:07 because mutants is gross and it's like tainting your crop or something. So X-Man is like, well, I'm the protector of this planet, so I'm just going to psychically or psionically just split myself up and infect everyone so that your whole crop is tainted and you can no longer eat us. So that is a solution to jackson's just like everyone's a bit mutant now everyone's a bit mutant i think that's what happened it's been a while that sounds there was none with no eyes in that in that that was pretty cool um the thing is and i think this is because i know that i have a reputation and people keep
Starting point is 00:15:41 reminding me of that i'm just like why am I seeing this movie? One, I have to or I get kicked off my own fucking podcast. True. Like, imagine if I tried to do plumbing. And also,
Starting point is 00:15:52 I like comic book stuff. Just because I'm overwhelmed with it and I can't be bothered doesn't mean I don't like it. And also, we really hope they're not trash. We do. Like,
Starting point is 00:16:00 Civil War was sick. BBS was just the trashiest. No, not again. Oh my God. Every time we mention bbs um that has the same rigmarole of emotions because it was so trash but it was perfect so yeah no i was excited for this i was excited i still trailer like the stinger in days to pass where was this fucking McNeil is my dad and yeah
Starting point is 00:16:25 that was a good in the trailer but like you know this you know blue hulk making pyramids and everyone being like who the fuck is this
Starting point is 00:16:32 and like four horsemen like everyone's like who and you're like ah it's gonna be sick I was so excited and so pumped and I guess the early reviews
Starting point is 00:16:39 maybe just taken took the wind out of my sails there was sorry so people thought it was Thanos, Blue Hulk And a lot of like Really clever people
Starting point is 00:16:48 I heard someone correct Someone was like Oh was that Thanos? Someone was like Thanos isn't in the X-Men universe That was Mystique So that was probably my favourite thing I ever heard Is it just kind of like
Starting point is 00:16:58 Everything in X-Men that is blue is clearly Mystique? Is that the theory? Like That they were coming from? A bit A bit Because I guess I guess Nightcrawler is a clearly Mystique. Is that the theory that they were coming from? A bit. A bit. Because I guess Nightcrawler is a bit Mystique.
Starting point is 00:17:09 It's his son. What? Nightcrawler is Mystique's son of Azrael from the first class. Got it. But in comic books, he's a demon. It's bad. Anyway, let's just move away from Chuck Austin. Okay, we're done. Let's move on.
Starting point is 00:17:27 The Draco storyline was real stupid Also, Nightcrawler in the comics Was originally meant to have two moms It was meant to be Mystique and Destiny But people were like, no gay shit And the writer was like You know what X-Men is about Yeah Like, you know
Starting point is 00:17:42 I mean Okay, I'll change it, but I'm confused. Yeah, I think it was Chris. Like, whose side are you on again? I think it was Chris that wrote it. And if you read some of his old comic books, in the relationship between Mystique and Destiny,
Starting point is 00:17:56 it's so heavily implied that they are just in a relationship. And you're like, this is kind of nice. And it's like headcanon it is. But I think the powers would be who was one of the i think i don't know probably some i want to say jim shooter but i don't know exactly but i want to say maybe it was jim shooter who was like no no gay shit stop actually just before we were talking about i remembered i was going to bring it up before but then i let you talk for too long and i forgot can someone please tweet me if that magneto comic
Starting point is 00:18:23 book line is worth reading the one where he's pretty much just him fighting Nazis. I think just in the description, the answer is yeah. No, because like the first covers him, like using like barbed wire to just like fuck people up. Is this the, it's just called Magneto.
Starting point is 00:18:36 Is it called the Magneto? And it sort of goes for his, cause I might've read it, but I'm not quite sure if that's like, cause it was like Magneto Rex where he's king of the, like he, no, it's just Magneto. It's more of a recent one yeah it's really recent it was after first class is it is is he in a white and black uh costume i can't remember because i'm pretty sure on this car is he bald i can't remember i'm pretty anyway i'm pretty sure it's just called
Starting point is 00:19:03 magneto and i'm pretty sure it was post i'm pretty sure it's just called Magneto and I'm pretty sure it was post I'm pretty sure it came out between First Class and Days of Future Past but it's not related to the films
Starting point is 00:19:11 it's just like people realise that Kim fucking up Nazis is probably an interesting thing for people to see yeah anyway
Starting point is 00:19:18 tweet me if it's good tweet me if it's bad tweet me if you just want to chat yeah he likes it nice douche 13
Starting point is 00:19:23 alright so what do we what do we think is going to happen in this film probably get there first I want you just want to chat. Just tweet him. He likes it. Douche 13. All right. So what do we think is going to happen in this film? Probably get there first. I want to hope. I want to hope. I feel like. Have you seen the other X-Men films? Yes, I have seen all of the X-Men films.
Starting point is 00:19:34 Thank you very much. Don't ask me anything else. What about the Wolverine films? I did watch the Wolverine films. I hated them. The second one's good. It's not. It was terrible.
Starting point is 00:19:44 But that does segue. So thank you, Jaldeesha. I am kind of hoping that they downplay Wolverine films. I hated them. The second one's good. It's not. It was terrible, but that does segue. So thank you Jaldeesha. I am kind of hoping that they downplay Wolverine. They will. He's only been in the trailer for one second. He's probably got a glorified cameo. I was kind of hoping that that was going to be X-23. The girl movie. Fucking X-Force.
Starting point is 00:19:59 Because they're fucking putting all their fucking eggs in one basket. They're like, this has got bad reviews, but we've greenlit X-Force and we're fucking greenlit Wolverine 3 to have an R rating. Shut up, Ali. Wolverine 2 was sick. He put a man in an icebreaker snow plow machine.
Starting point is 00:20:17 Yeah, it was fantastic. It was trash. It was so trash. You didn't watch the director's cut. You watched the bad one. I watched it in the movies and I fell asleep. That's how bad it was. That's okay.
Starting point is 00:20:28 Rest more. No, I am hoping a little bit for a bit of a downplay on Wolverine. Hugh Jackman, you're a champ and I get it. But I think when these movies jump onto these bandwagons that respond to the fans, it really takes it away for me. The fact that I loved Days of Future Past, but it felt like First Class, I love First Class, but didn't have enough Wolverine, so we're going to make Wolverine
Starting point is 00:20:55 the main character again. Ali, you're making up fan backlash didn't happen. Yeah, maybe. Maybe. Because this film got like apocalypse got absolutely
Starting point is 00:21:08 trashed by fans just from the first trailer because they're like Mystique running the X-Men but that was my next thing that was wow that was my next thing is I'm kind of like
Starting point is 00:21:15 have my question is have they got Jennifer Lawrence because she did again J-Lo you fucking champ are they giving her
Starting point is 00:21:23 a bigger role because you sound like every single nerd on the internet that's angry about it I'm asking Again, J-Law, you fucking champ. Are they giving her a bigger role? You sound like every single nerd on the internet that's angry about it. I'm asking. I'm asking. Jerk-offs. Not from a J-Law perspective, but from a Mystique perspective. I don't know why they've certainly put Mystique so far up front
Starting point is 00:21:42 in terms of the X-Men, considering in the comic book universe, Mystique has always been either a bit player or always going to betray them. Mystique's kind of character in comics has always just been someone who is looking after herself and potentially Destiny, but herself and, you know, also her daughter, like Rogue and shit like that. So she kind of always looks after herself and her family to an extent, but mostly herself.
Starting point is 00:22:08 So she's more of a very selfish character. Whereas in the first class and that, it's just not. Which kind of works. Yeah, it's a bit of a development. And then she looks after herself at the end where she's like, actually, I'm probably going to bang more on this side. Yeah. That was the impression that I got. No, like, I'd say that this sort of makes sense
Starting point is 00:22:28 because it's sort of seeds that were sown in first class, which was before she did Hunger Games. Because it makes sense as a story arc. Oh, there you go. I see where she went. You know, I loved her in Mystique and where it was in Days of Future Past. But I don't know, her leading the X-Men, apart from being like, why is the woman leading the X-Men? apart from being like, why is a woman leading the X-Men?
Starting point is 00:22:47 It's more like, why is Mystique leading the X-Men? No, no, no. The thing is, people are thinking the first one, but saying the second one. Right. Because I'm more like, no, Storm lead the X-Men. See? It's about ethics in X-Men-ing.
Starting point is 00:23:01 Exactly. People are going to be mad at me for yelling at this potentially tweet me, I'm sorry a bit I'm not really I'm going to probably say it again not even close ethics and X-Men-ing
Starting point is 00:23:16 hashtag let me die kind of hoping for explain why Mystique is leading the X-Men yeah absolutely I feel like what's going to happen is that Charles will get shit is leading the x-men yeah absolutely yeah give that but like what's gonna happen is that charles will get shit on and then she'll be like no we need to get back charles charles will be like you're leading the x-men wrong it's not the brotherhood it's the x-men okay and then she'll be like no charles i'm doing this for you and charles is like you're doing it
Starting point is 00:23:39 wrong still and then charles will take back over mystique will be like a bit hurt and then bugger off again with magneto because like with yeah maybe i don't know because magneto is fucked off after the end of days of future past based on the trailer yeah like no one seems to have seen him and like mystique and charles are on okay terms after days future past so it makes sense like from a storytelling perspective i know that it's not in line with the comics but who cares yeah like the whole thing with adaptations is change shit you make things interesting make things new if you want to like you know you want the storyline from the comics read the storyline from the fucking comics yeah and like i'll compare that to batman v superman because this will be an easy comparison to make so like i'm all up for like changing shit
Starting point is 00:24:23 in the comic like changing shit from the comic, like changing shit from the comics. Cause like, whatevs like mystique, if you want her to be good now, that's fine. Batman V Superman, making Batman kill is a bad choice. Not because it goes against the comics,
Starting point is 00:24:35 but because it makes no logical sense in the universe of the film you created. Because if he's fucking sick as in murdering, why does he have any rogues gallery left? They should all be dead. Cause if he's going to as in murdering, why does he have any rogues gallery left? They should all be dead. Because if he's going to kill just random lads, then why wouldn't he murder the Joker? Why wouldn't he just like riddle and be like, riddle me this and just shoots him in the head?
Starting point is 00:24:54 Riddle me this, Batman. No. Fuck your bullshit. Go on. Good. Ah, perfect film. Oh, I also want Olivia Munn to be amazing. She's probably going get I reckon a hot
Starting point is 00:25:06 Zero words She's gonna almost I reckon God damn Out of all the horsemen She'll be the least The least screen time Who's the other one?
Starting point is 00:25:15 Magneto's gonna get The only one with words Who are the other ones again? Magneto Angel Storm And Psylocke
Starting point is 00:25:23 So I reckon Psylocke And probably Angel We haven't seen much of Psylocke So I reckon Psylocke and probably Angel We haven't seen much of Psylocke, she might legitimately die But I reckon she's not going to get Either A, not much air time Or at least not say much They're going to kind of
Starting point is 00:25:37 I reckon she's going to have that role that Azrael had In X-Men First Class Important but not Didn't say anything And then we're going to kill him off screen next film. Did she turn down... I've had Olivia Munn turn down a role in another superhero movie so that she could do one like this.
Starting point is 00:25:54 Did I? No, I think she got an audition for Wonder Woman, maybe. No, no, no, for like Deadpool's girlfriend? Oh, well, that's fair enough. Or something like that? I mean, that's kind of a dumb financial move now. Oh, maybe not actually i don't know because like the act the actors in deadpool didn't get paid much because they all
Starting point is 00:26:09 just look like no we'll take a pay cut because this is our passion project and now that they're gonna make deadpool 2 to be like we're gonna take a massive pay increase because fuck you because we should be reinvested from the first film yeah and they'll release deadpool and cable and people be like what if cable was also also Deadpool? No, that's... Look, Cable and Deadpool should be alright. Because again, every kind of my issues with Deadpool was just the straight man. And so when you have Cable, who
Starting point is 00:26:33 is very much a straight man for Deadpool's wacky bullshit, it should balance itself out. That's my theory anyway. I hope that they do what happens in Batman Forever where there's a bit where Two-Face starts acting like fucking the Riddler and the Riddler starts acting a bit like Two-Face. It's just like the actors just forgot what they were doing.
Starting point is 00:26:54 It's good. It's like, is this good, Chewbacca? And you just say, yeah, yeah, yeah, give me okay. Yeah. Perfect, mate. So I reckon we're not going to get much in terms of air time
Starting point is 00:27:07 for some of the horsemen at least because we have to yeah and that's always the issue the movie's going to focus on Jean Grey
Starting point is 00:27:14 Cyclops yeah Pietro no I reckon he'll have a bigger scene than he did in Days Future Past but he won't be in it
Starting point is 00:27:21 that much see I reckon it might be something to do with family here so they're going to do something to do with La Familia they're going to do something to do with La Familia La Familia
Starting point is 00:27:26 Vin Diesel confirmed Cammy so what's going to happen is Quicksilver's going to get in a sick car I reckon it's going to be something to do with Magneto and Quicksilver
Starting point is 00:27:37 and maybe that's why I reckon if Magneto turns away from Apocalypse it might be to do with his son yeah that's a good theory. There's only going to be one Quicksilver scene,
Starting point is 00:27:47 almost 100%. No, it's not going to happen. I mean, I don't know that for sure. That's just my guess. But in the trailer, it looks like the X-Mansion is blowing up. Oh, yeah. That's sick.
Starting point is 00:27:56 An X-Mansion blows up a lot. Yeah. It builds character or whatever the fucking Deadpool line is. Is Klausus in this one? No. I don't know. I don't think so. If he is, we haven't seen him yet.
Starting point is 00:28:10 Oh, no. Is Rose Byrne back? I don't know. Yeah, she is back. Yeah, she's back. Moira's back. Moira's back. I love me some Moira.
Starting point is 00:28:18 Yeah, yeah. Because that's something that I'm kind of like, ooh. Fun fact, this film takes place like 25 years after First Class. Everyone's aged very well. Yeah, super good. Or could just be a bit of Charles Xavier just like boop-booping everyone to make us all look beautiful. Yeah, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:28:37 He good like that. Charles loses his hair in this film. That's good. Yeah? I'm excited for that. Bald Charles. Yeah. That's good.
Starting point is 00:28:44 I'm not excited for bald James McAvoy, though. Is it McAvoy? McAvoy. McAvoy, yeah. I'm not excited for bald James McAvoy Is it McAvoy? McAvoy, yeah, I'm not excited for bald Think of like a Savoy If Mac has sold Savoys I'm not excited for bald Mr. Thomas That's where I'm gonna go Your giddy excitement
Starting point is 00:29:00 for a film you know nothing about is just insane I always get excited about Michael Fass for a film you know nothing about is just insane. I always get excited about Michael Fass. Fassbender? Yeah. I mean, no, no, keep talking. You're proving my point. No, not in like a...
Starting point is 00:29:14 Eli over here is real bad at names. I deserve that. I'm excited. Like an Aaron Genie over here. No, no no like that it wasn't like that was a that was a slow burn
Starting point is 00:29:31 I was like what oh alright I'm back on board um no like I don't mean that
Starting point is 00:29:36 like people don't need to know everything about a movie before they see it no one needs to read the comics before they see superhero movies but you don't even like you're just
Starting point is 00:29:43 you're just a mess a mess I'm a mess I have seen all of the X-Men movies multiple times fair enough can you put them in order chronologically
Starting point is 00:29:52 oh I'm gonna say not release order like storyline okay alright alright I'll take no no X-Men I'll take two answers for this one.
Starting point is 00:30:07 Wait. Oh, fuck. Because Days of Future's Past is going to be the second one. First Class? No. X-Men Origins Wolverine. Then First Class. No.
Starting point is 00:30:20 Those two at the same time. And then kind of Days of Future's Past Fun watching you struggle Let's just say for the sake of this Days of Future's Past is right at the end Because it's future, future, future Let's not do the like There's three timelines in Days of Future's Past
Starting point is 00:30:40 Fuck myself That's what I'm doing Okay, let's just put that at the end. Right. I'm going to say Origins and then First Class and then X-Men 1, 2, 3. And then, no, don't give me that face of disappointment. No, I'm just like, question, where's the Wolverine films going? That Wolverine film was going to go at the end of Last Stand.
Starting point is 00:31:10 And then Days of Fishes Past again. Oh, fuck, I forgot Apocalypse, which is now somewhere near the start. You know what? There's two timelines. Does that help you? Oh, no. And the correct answer for the start is just the stinger of days of future past that's an egyptian time
Starting point is 00:31:33 and then it goes the first like then origins but only like the like war stuff yeah then first class, but that's in another timeline that we don't get to until there's a future Listen to your explanation, you bastards. No one in their right mind would be able to place them except you two. I do love X-Men. I think it's,
Starting point is 00:32:03 I love any sort of storyline that has so many different abilities. And that's why, that's why X-Men always, I get bored. Like I find Superman overpowered. I find Batman. Oh my God, my parents died. We get it. You're an orphan. We understand.
Starting point is 00:32:18 Yeah, we get it. You're an orphan. You got, Gotham is the fucking city that needs you or some bullshit like that. That is a bot, man. That is a bot, man. But, yeah, I think that same thing over and over I get bored with, but with X-Men I like to see how they tackle problems with everyone. They can just bring in a million different characters.
Starting point is 00:32:39 Yeah, but it does get out overwhelming. So, like, I got it? No. No? This is like a pre-review Rather than a So I reckon Alright so what's gonna happen
Starting point is 00:32:49 Is we're gonna open up We're like say We have your school And you're gonna get Jean Grey and Cyclops Doing their biz And maybe we're gonna get An opening with
Starting point is 00:32:57 Maybe even Apocalypse I reckon it's gonna It's either gonna open With Apocalypse Or open with Recruiting Yeah I was gonna say We're gonna either open up With Recruiting
Starting point is 00:33:03 But I think it's gonna open up With Apocalypse Recruiting the Horsemen Or some shit yeah? No I reckon You just get Apocalypse or open with Recruiting? Yeah, I was going to say, we're going to either open up with Recruiting, but I think it's going to open up with Apocalypse, Recruiting, The Horseman or some shit, yeah? No, I reckon you just get Apocalypse, Apocalypse, Apocalypse, or Magneto by himself being recruited by Apocalypse. I reckon Rose Byrne. I reckon Rose Byrne. Rose Byrne being like, what the fuck happened?
Starting point is 00:33:17 No, because Rose Byrne is like- Who's the Charles? That would be nice, but I reckon Rose Byrne will be the one who introduces all the theories about Apocalypse before anything else. Because there's a scene in the trailer where she's like in the history books. So I reckon she's going to be the one who starts that conversation. Do you think a movie will open with that?
Starting point is 00:33:37 I mean, this movie's got bad reviews, so maybe it will. Well, maybe. But I reckon we'll be exposed to Apocalypse through her theories. Potentially. I reckon it might open with that boxing match where Nightcrawler's recruited. Because I was thinking of that, because I was thinking when Mystique goes around and recruits them, I reckon she was going to be recruiting them after Xavier turns or whatever. But now I'm thinking, no, it might be opening with that because Angel's got his natural wings
Starting point is 00:34:00 because we know he gets turned to a horseman and he gets the metallic wings right so it's gonna have to be there's gonna be a fucking metal ass mate there's gonna be almost a recruitment of both sides happening maybe at the same time i feel like what might happen is work i guess well the movie's poorly paced apparently so it might just be recruitment for two hours and then a 20 minute fight and then credits oh sick yeah i reckon xavier's gonna either turn well you reckon xavier might be a horseman a sneaky a sneaky fifth horseman of apocalypse oh you know what charles might turn because like you get that scene in the trailer because at first i was like so beautiful whatever he says with his eyes all black i've never seen so much power yeah that's
Starting point is 00:34:43 the one yeah but he always is like too much. I thought he was kind of always the one who's like too much. I hope he gets a nosebleed. I'd be happy to see that. He does all the time though, doesn't he? Is that a Charles thing? It's a telepath thing. Every telepath, if they're worth their fucking
Starting point is 00:34:59 grain of salt, just have a nosebleed. Gross. It happens. It's just one of those little things. When you have a nosebleed. Gross. Happens. It's just one of those little things. One of those things when you have telepathy. When you have a nosebleed, you are a telepath. Yeah. That's just a fact.
Starting point is 00:35:11 That explains a lot. People being like, what's that? You've got a nosebleed? Stop reading my mind. Get out of there. And you punch him in the face. And then he's like, get out. And you make his nosebleed worse, which means he's reading your mind harder.
Starting point is 00:35:20 And so you've just got to keep going. That's why you never trust a nosebleeder. Listeners, please don't punch. Never trust a nosebleeder. Punch him in the don't punch. Never trust a nosebleeder. Punch him in the face. Please don't punch any nosebleeders, please. Ali's our lawyer, so if there's any issues, please just feel free to use her as a defendant.
Starting point is 00:35:35 Exactly. So punch a nosebleeder in the face, Ali Kathleen, 2016. It rhymes, so it's applicable. So that's what happened. Arancini balls, Catherine. Thank happened. Arancini balls Catherine. Thank you. Arancini balls cactus 2016. I want this to stop.
Starting point is 00:35:52 You know how you guys are like hashtag let me die? It's only when you guys start doing this that I'm like hashtag let me die and go to the movies and be happy. So yeah, if you want to tweet me or Zamet, use the hashtag let me die. If you want to tweet Ali, use hashtag let me die so I can go to the movies. It's not quite as concise.
Starting point is 00:36:10 Or let you die so I can go to the movies. Kill them. No, no. If you want to tweet us, hashtag let me die. If you want to tweet Ali, hashtag kill them all. I know. Kill them all. Yeah, kill them all.
Starting point is 00:36:25 How good though, speaking, man, man. How good though, speaking of whatever that sound you made, how good is the song in the trailer? It's a good song. Oh, I like it. I mean, the Coldplay cover? No, it's not a Coldplay. It's called Shadows something. It's on my phone.
Starting point is 00:36:41 No, there's a Coldplay cover. Anyway, when is the missile is when is the when is the missiles going to be launching opening scene correct definitely not no um that'll be like towards the end uh that'll probably be when i feel like magneto are we gonna get no i'm thinking like magneto might stop it it's called snow ghost the hunted oh that's the last trailer are we gonna get the cult of like um apocalypse like the i think Are we going to get the cult of Apocalypse? I think they'll probably replace it with the Four Horsemen. Ackbar or whatever they're called.
Starting point is 00:37:10 Replace it with the Four Horsemen. But they're there to serve Apocalypse and then to also gather the horsemen eventually. It's like cult of Ackbar or whatever. A-K-B-B-U? You know what? The movie might start with Magneto doing some fucked shit. Why? Like just doing something, just Magneto doing some fucked shit. Why? Like just doing something, just Magneto-ing or like walking.
Starting point is 00:37:29 Just Magneto-ing. Walking by himself, being all sad and being like. In a flannel. In a flannel. And then Apocalypse approaching him in like a hood and being like, brother, you have lost your way. Oh, that's a good theory. And then it'll fade to the credits, the opening credits.
Starting point is 00:37:43 Michael Fassbender, I would let you find your way mad dumb but unfortunately also beats women so take what you can get I guess every celebrity crush that I get you guys are like let's see how quickly we can destroy it they've tried
Starting point is 00:38:00 to destroy well they have destroyed Michael Fassbender you destroyed Mark Wahlberg real early that's real easy, though. Yeah, he's a racist who blinded a man. Yeah, yeah. And yeah, Michael Fassbender, I don't know the exact specifics, but I know that it involved a car door and he burst his girlfriend's ovarian cysts. Oh, boy.
Starting point is 00:38:18 That got worse from the previous story, you guys tell me. Back to X-Men Apocalypse. Yeah. Because he's such a good actor. I've got to get better taste in him. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:29 Yeah. I'm glad that's on record. I don't know. I think I have no expectations anymore. I have literally zero expectations. I was like, I'm excited for this film. I hope it's going to be a good time. And then I guess everything, the wind out of my sails. And I'm like, I don't know what to expect anymore hope it's going to be a good time. And then I guess everything, the wind out of my sails.
Starting point is 00:38:46 And I'm like, I don't know what to expect anymore because I'm hoping it's a good, well-rounded film that kind of makes sense from beginning to end. And we see some good setups. We see the reason why. Maybe we do start with the Nightcrawler angel fight and Mystique recruiting people for the X-Men. That's the next first generation of X-Men.
Starting point is 00:39:03 And then that's what's happening. Everyone's getting recruited and that kind of stuff. At one point, she's going to say, you're not students anymore. You're X-Men. Of course. That's going to be good. I think she'll probably say it like eight times. I was hoping.
Starting point is 00:39:14 A Havoc's in it, which is nice. Yeah. I do like me a Havoc. He's pretty rad. Oh, wait. Yeah. I wonder if they'll actually be brothers. I hope so.
Starting point is 00:39:22 Who? Cyclops and Havok are brothers. Havok's the guy that can shoot the optic blast from his chest. I guess it would be an optic blast from his chest. They're chestic blasts. So, chestic blast and optic blast are brothers. Yes. I did not know that.
Starting point is 00:39:38 That makes sense, though, I guess. I mean, like, his name is something... What's Havok's name? Something Summers. What's Havok's first name? Alex. Yeah, it's Alex Summers and Scott's name? Something Summers. What's Havoc's first name? Alex. Yeah, it's Alex Summers and Scott Summers. Scott Summers.
Starting point is 00:39:49 So, here's my thing. So, then you've got... Is Mystique going to reveal... Because there's a lot of familial... It is very much a lot of familiar. Will Mystique give away to Nightcrawler that he is her son? Only if they accept that as the thing. Well, it seems that it might be.
Starting point is 00:40:06 If you look in Days of Future Past, when she's looking through the files and she sees a dead Azrael, she's like, oh, real sad. It's going to be hard to. Oh, that happened. I thought he was just like, oh, we were friends. No. Yeah, all right. Maybe.
Starting point is 00:40:19 Maybe. I mean, it could just be hinted at and they might reveal it. But the thing is, it's going to be hard to slot that into the timeline. But X-Men is sort of just like, what else? Who cares now? But because again, it is that kind of thing. Because then it is all very much like very much a La Familia film. Because then you have, you know, Mystique and Nightcrawler.
Starting point is 00:40:35 You have Pietro and Magneto. And you're going to have maybe Scott and Alex. Actually, I'm pretty sure they called Havoc Alex Summers in first class so they probably won't shy away from that at worst they'll be cousins I hope they push, lean into that being brothers because it could just be very much a familial thing and if that's a theme of the film
Starting point is 00:40:56 which is all about what you do for your blood and that extends to mutant brothers as well yeah, makes sense but the reviews are bad so that probably doesn't happen so who knows that sounds like something i'd climb on me although no because i was gonna say although uh last day i've read a review that said that it makes last stand look good and that stressed me that's bad that's not
Starting point is 00:41:15 good that's not good no it'll be fine it'll be fine guys it's fine it's just people need to get mad all the time it's gonna be fine it's critics who are like, BVS is trash. And it was like, yep. And then it was like, Civil War is good. And you're like, yep. So it's like this. No, this isn't the internet. This is critics.
Starting point is 00:41:32 Yeah. Because like critics are usually pretty trustworthy. Yeah. Pretty. Like, I mean, they can be wrong, but it's rare for everyone to be so wrong about something. Guys, just like, this will be the exception. Okay. Just like, don't break this story.
Starting point is 00:41:42 I've had the one exception in my lifetime though. Yeah. Only God forgives critics went fucking down on it yeah and it's legitimately one of the like it's weird as fuck but one of my favorites same with spring break is actually fuck i love those movies i'm getting a lot of hate for that maybe this is maybe this is gonna be a good film maybe this is gonna be a good reference um i'm hoping it is like i really i just i want it to be good i really do i i want how i feel like the x-men franchise to continue however as i sort of the final fight's gonna i'm just trying to think like what this movie's gonna
Starting point is 00:42:18 be like it's gonna there's gonna be a lot of recruiting yeah i feel like there's probably gonna be too many review familiar like what's the familial yeah familial reveals la familia la familial reveals yeah familiar reveals vin diesel's camera is gonna feel shoehorned in and i feel like the final fight with apocalypse is gonna be bullshit like his horseman will probably turn on him and he'll i just have this weird vision magneto will turn i just have this weird vision. Magneto will turn. I just have this weird vision of him. Angel also will turn. You reckon? Hang on. Now that I think about it, every single one of those are X-Men.
Starting point is 00:42:49 Yeah. Yeah, they'll turn. What about Psylocke? Yeah, she's an X-Man. Every single one of them will turn. Yeah, it'll be Psylocke and Storm are both X-Men. And it's Angel as well. Which one's Olivia Munn?
Starting point is 00:43:00 Psylocke. How is she an X-Man? Psylocke, not Cyclops. No, I knew that. I thought you said he, and then I got very confused. I'm sorry. We might have, but we meant she. Psylocke is also part of the X-Men.
Starting point is 00:43:14 I'm on board now. I'm curious where this is going, because none of these have been the horsemen before in the comics, in any iteration that I can remember, except for Angel, who is very much a classical. Magneto has, hasn't he? No. I've never seen it no like i've never i like them like hey new villain not magneto but also magneto strikers in it as well i think really why because of the timeline yeah but it's been fucking give me some amiga red man give me like a fucking beefy fucking Russian guy with tentacle hands smacking people around.
Starting point is 00:43:49 That's what I want. Just give me fucking. Like Dolph Lundgren in his heyday, but like a bit grayer with like a sweet blonde top knot and tentacle hands smacking folk. Fuck, I'm trying to think like. X-Men have heaps of villains. X-Men have heaps of villains. Like, fucking... Oh, there's rumors that the next film will...
Starting point is 00:44:10 Sinister? No. Damn. Something they've already done before. What? Dark Phoenix. Oh, they're going to space, yeah? I don't know if they're going to space.
Starting point is 00:44:18 I just saw headlines like, Rumors that X-Men's going to space. I was like, oh, Star Jammers. Which is kind of, again, Corsair, Scott's dad. And Alex's dad. I guess they, oh, Star Jammers. Which is kind of, again, of course, Scott's dad and Alex's dad. I guess they're bringing Scott and Alex in together. It makes sense to sort of lean into the dad. To lean into space.
Starting point is 00:44:31 Lean into dad space. Because they got captured by the Shia. And so he's leading the Star Jammers. It's weird seeing X-Men in space. Because it's always been like, considering how batshit crazy what we're actually seeing is, it's been pretty grounded. But the moment they go to space
Starting point is 00:44:48 everyone's gonna be like, wait a second, these movies have been insane since day one. Yeah. Also, if superhero movies go to space, everyone's gonna compare it to Guardians of the Galaxy unfavorably because it won't be fucking... Guardians of the Galaxy? It won't be quip-fest fucking
Starting point is 00:45:04 2014, which Guardians of the Galaxy was It won't be Quipfest fucking 2014, which Guardians of the Galaxy was. Still good, though. It's all right. I've seen it too many times. That's on you, though. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:12 Yeah. Has a trash third act, though. Yeah. I think my favorite part of Guardians of the Galaxy is it being Star Wars, and then my least favorite part is when it reminds me it's a Marvel film. Fair enough. No, because Guardians of the Galaxy is like,
Starting point is 00:45:24 what if A New Hope, everyone was Han Solo? And also there was a tree. Well, okay. If everyone was Han Solo when there was one Chewbacca. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:40 And that was pretty rad is the answer. Yeah, no, it is pretty rad. But yeah, first two thirds sick Last third snooze fest So at what point do you reckon What is their equivalent Of Bruce Wayne young Bruce Wayne Hovering in a well
Starting point is 00:45:56 Going to be Apocalypse getting big Sorry what Don't worry You don't want me to explain some BVS stuff? No. Oh, it's BVS thing.
Starting point is 00:46:07 So it's trash. And you get a weird fever dream of Charles dreaming of, cause I don't think that fight where we see apocalypse get big. I think that's going
Starting point is 00:46:17 to be a dream sequence. That's like a premonition. Yeah. Do you reckon that's going to, what if it opens with this like balls to the wall?
Starting point is 00:46:24 What if it just fucking opens with the dream sequence? Because my God, if it opens with this Like balls to the wall What if it just fucking opens With a dream sequence Because my god if it does I'll be happy Yeah because Apocalypse Is just like slamming Charles over the shoulder
Starting point is 00:46:32 Because that's one of Apocalypse's Sort of powers Get big I'm gonna say No dream sequence Him and Ant-Man Slash Giant-Man Have one thing in common
Starting point is 00:46:39 Getting big Ant-Man and Giant-Man So yeah He gets big And then he's just like They're the same person Yes See Civil War So he gets big. They're the same person. Yes.
Starting point is 00:46:45 See Civil War. Come on, Aaron Cheney balls. Keep up. So yeah, I reckon open up. How bad would this be if it opens up in like just Charles potting around the X mansion and then like Apocalypse is there. He walks in, has a chat with him. And then Xavier's like, nah. And then he gets real big, slams walks in, has a chat with him. And then Xavier's like, nah. And then he gets real big, slams him.
Starting point is 00:47:07 They have a kind of fight. Then Xavier just wakes up, eyes open. It was all a dream, but like premonition. I mean like good. How terrible. How much would you hate? I'd hate that. I'd hate that so much.
Starting point is 00:47:17 If we weren't seeing it in a fancy cinema, I might leave, but then there'll be food and I can drink beers while watching this. I'm so excited again. Wait, you're right. Fuck. Because a little bit of behind the scenes here that the joels are seeing this in gold class yeah the alley is not and our good friend ed goose are seeing it in trash cinema with all the rest of you trash plebs whereas king joel and king joel are seeing humble fucking beginnings can humble fucking beginnings if you want humble beginnings fucking pay for your own ticket then, Ali.
Starting point is 00:47:46 I thought that I was. I'm not? Ah, this is so exciting. See, this is double excitement for me. Yeah, no. I'll pick you up. Don't stress. Rad, I'm back on board.
Starting point is 00:47:56 So now we're... Oh, tell me about the gold class menu again. No, no. Tell me about the... I'll close my eyes and tell you about the Palmers. You know what? The last time I was at gold class, I got churros. Alison, Alison, Alison, tell me about the Palmers. You know what? The last time I was a gold class, I got cheeros. Allison, Allison, Allison, tell me about the Palmers.
Starting point is 00:48:06 They are so good, aren't they? Yeah, but dips, disappointing. Oh, I don't know if that was a village. I think that was a different gold class. Tell us about the Palmers. Go on. Oh, okay. Describe them.
Starting point is 00:48:17 Describe them. I don't want to talk about Palmers. So there's a chicken Palmer wrap, which is, it's a wrap. It's just got chicken piece like chicken brass pieces with just some ham some napoli sauce some bocconcini balls uh bocconcini cheese which are just like the balls squished melted on top just a bit of lettuce a bit of tomato i think there might never be tomato but it doesn't matter but then there's also a bit of uh there's a bit of another sauce and it's all wrapped together cut in half it's just beautiful mouth is watering just thinking about that enjoy your popcorn though ali i
Starting point is 00:48:47 i actually like purposely tuned out i was like no how long is this film two hours and 40 minutes with trailers though hashtag let me die push through hashtag push through Hashtag let me drink beers Why is there a three of I regret it I regret it I'm back on the regret side No no no I'm going to stand strong Because you guys bring me down
Starting point is 00:49:13 We're going to be fine We're going to be fine I can't I don't know I almost want this film to be Opening with Apocalypse taking over And then it becomes Age of Apocalypse
Starting point is 00:49:23 That would be my ideal apocalypse film that if it just if it's apocalypse's rise to power and and that's in the first act oh wait it's probably gonna open with egypt and because it'll explain like how he's just fucking around it'll open with egypt right and then it will sort of like kind of go through the ages right and then it'll pull back and it'll be Moira McTaggart explaining this. Yeah, that makes sense. Or you'll get an opening scene of him like fucking up Egypt
Starting point is 00:49:50 or building the pyramids again. And then it'll go opening credits and then it'll be like 2,000 years later and then it'll be Moira talking about it. Yeah. All right. That's a good theory. It's going to end with...
Starting point is 00:50:02 I hope I win. Is it a competition? For some reason, yes yes and I always win no we win because we get palmers damn it and beer I'm gonna have
Starting point is 00:50:12 Ed Goose so he's gonna be he's not worth a palm I don't know what he's gonna be like we've never been in the movies together so you get second place
Starting point is 00:50:20 in both cinema choice and guest preference oh Ed Goose I hope you listen to this. And I'm quite enjoying and looking forward to spending some time in the movies where we will watch a movie and not talk because we're at a movie and Joel won't be there to talk. My God, listeners, Joel talks in every movie we ever go to.
Starting point is 00:50:39 Hey, do I or do I not make it an experience for you? Sometimes it's an unenjoyable experience. I'd just like to point out that Jurassic Park. Just to say Joel it wasn't me. That was you. I'm quite a good
Starting point is 00:50:50 It was Zaman. We did have fun in Terminator though. There we go. Zaman and I went together. Jurassic Park or Jurassic World that was a group of us. And I was the fourth
Starting point is 00:50:59 and it wasn't just me. That's true. I was the only one who wasn't talking. Depends on the film. So like I purposely didn't sit next to you for The Force Awakens because I ended up. No, we got excited during that and it was all right. I usually try and put Jackson in between us because like then you'll hassle Jackson.
Starting point is 00:51:14 And then if I get on the Civil War that Jackson hassled me the most. I missed some vital points in that fucking Jack. He spoke over the fucking top of like an important reveal. Really important. And I was like, what was it? Oh my. Rewind. Can they rewind?
Starting point is 00:51:29 We can now. It's digital. So if someone says you can't rewind a film, they're lying to you. Those sons of bitches. Fun facts. No, we did have fun in Terminator. See, there you go. I was there for that too.
Starting point is 00:51:39 No, you. I don't think you were. No. I saw it with Aaron. Yeah. Oh man. He got me really excited for it. And then I saw it and I was like what is wrong with you He was like yeah actually it's not that good And I was like yeah I know you've seen it twice now
Starting point is 00:51:52 I love it I think I've seen it three times I love it so much Days of Future Past I saw like two three four times In the cinemas a lot Really? I saw it three I saw like two, three, four times in the cinemas. A lot. Really? Yeah. Like, fuck, I love that film. I saw it three.
Starting point is 00:52:06 I liked it. I saw it once, though. This film. I don't know. I think I'm so. Might be a one and done-er. I'm so reserved. And I hate that.
Starting point is 00:52:14 Like, I just. This should be good. Like, we're seeing finally a villain that isn't fucking Magneto. Magneto, yeah. But it's like. But it is. And also Magneto. And like, I'm also now thinking why don't
Starting point is 00:52:26 we have sinister like genuinely why don't we have mr sinister as one of the horsemen it makes more sense why have so many story arcs but not include that one as well like i don't know i mean like there could be a last minute because my problem is I'm trying to imagine... In my head, I've got this fight, like a final fight where it's like the city's fucked. I can just see everyone be like, all right, if we work together, we can take him down, and then everyone using their powers together, and for some reason, Apocalypse shrinking.
Starting point is 00:52:59 Oh, no. Funny. I can just imagine that for some reason. Well, there's going to be some turn. I reckon... Let's see here. Maybe borrowing some stuff from the comics. Look, if we say Angel and Psylocke, maybe a budding romance there, and maybe that's why they defect into the X-Men,
Starting point is 00:53:19 and then they are fighting him. Storm, why would she defect? Again, Xavier might give her a talk about, you know, with great power comes great responsibility. The Spider-Man talk. Don't make me kill Uncle Ben. Yeah, yeah. And Magneto is probably not going to turn.
Starting point is 00:53:36 Magneto, yeah. They'll probably turn one at a time or in groups. And Magneto will be the last to turn. And Charles will be like, Eric. Eric, nosebleed Eric you've got to do this Eric Eric we used to be
Starting point is 00:53:51 friends this is not what we started this for Eric it's not us be them it's us versus him we need to save everyone Eric my legs don't work I can do this
Starting point is 00:54:06 all day. Tony Stark gets the shit kicked out of him and that's the end. And that's pretty good. And on that note, I've been Joel. I've also been Joel. And I've been Ellie. I hope it's good. It's probably not. Hashtag
Starting point is 00:54:22 kill them all. Let me die. Say, if you want to get me and Joel's attention, hashtag let me die hashtag say if you want to get me and Joel's attention hashtag let me die or hashtag Joel drink beer or hashtag chicken parma
